A Connecticut woman found a venomous eight-legged surprise in her bag of grapes on Monday — but she still insists she will stick to buying only organic produce.

According to News 12, Nora Weiss purchased a bag of Sunview Organic Table Grapes from a Whole Foods store in Fairfield, Conn. When she took the grapes out of the bag to wash them, she discovered a black widow spider lurking in the bag. The spider was still alive.

Whole Foods issued a statement saying that the claim could be true since no pesticides are used on organic produce. The store also offered Weiss a refund or replacement.

Widow spiders are considered the most venomous spiders in North America. According to National Geographic, a black widow bite can cause muscle aches, nausea and paralysis of the diaphragm, making it difficult to breath.
